Overview: NetGuardian 240T

The NetGuardian 240T is a feature-rich RTU that gives you the power to report up to 40 contact closures over T1 or E1.

Are your sites without LAN lacking proper alarm coverage? Poor visibility over any part of your network is a recipe for unanticipated outages that cripple your operations, cost you time and money, and upset your customers. But getting LAN to a site can be very expensive and impractical. You need an RTU that can give you total visibility over your sites that only have T1 or E1 connectivity (See Ordering Options for E1).

The NetGuardian 240T has 40 discrete sensors, and communicates with up to 7 devices via LAN over T1.

Up to 40 Discrete Points for Thorough Coverage

The new NetGuardian 240T can give your site the alarm reporting you need when LAN just isn't an option. The integrated 7 port 10/100 BaseT switch delivers LAN to 7 other devices at the site, eliminating the need to buy an expensive LAN transport card. In fact, the 240T is less expensive than installing a LAN card from your transport manufacturer (which doesn't do any monitoring at all). This makes installing the 240T a "no-brainer" decision.

The NetGuardian 240T's integrated T1 interface supports SNMP and DCPx reporting protocols, as well as standard link Frame Relay and PPP. The device comes standard with support for up to 40 "software reversible" discrete alarms (supports both N/O and N/C), 6 general purpose analog inputs, 2 control relays, and up to 16 D-Wire sensors.

The unit's dual power inputs, with a variety of available input voltages and connector options, give you extra reliability in the event of a power failure. The unit's front panel comes with 8 standard LED lights, a built-in speaker, and an LCD monitor menu.

Based on the NetGuardian 832 processor, the 240T is equipped with the hardware accelerator option that allows for Secure web access (HTTPS) to the unit's web browser interface. And with an operating temperature of -30 to 70 C, this telco-grade remote is built to withstand harsh environments.
